OFA hips and elbows
Active breeding dogs have hip and elbow results recorded before a planned pairing. Retired dogs keep their historical results on their profiles for lineage context.
We openly share the screenings and planning behind every pairing so families understand exactly what supports long-term health in our dogs.
Our demo health page is filled out the way a finished breeder site should feel: specific, organized, and easy for families to understand without pretending health testing is a guarantee.
6 commitments
Active breeding dogs have hip and elbow results recorded before a planned pairing. Retired dogs keep their historical results on their profiles for lineage context.
Heart screening is reviewed before breeding and repeated when our veterinarian recommends updated documentation.
Eye exams are documented on active dogs and reviewed alongside pedigree, structure, and temperament notes.
Breed-relevant genetic results are considered before pairings so we can avoid unnecessary risk stacking and explain the plan clearly.
Puppies are monitored from birth and receive age-appropriate veterinary review before go-home timing is finalized.
Families receive vaccine, deworming, feeding, microchip, and next-vet-visit notes before pickup day.
Our daily protocol
The commitments families can expect at every stage of a litter's life — what we watch, when, and why it matters.
Before pairing
We compare OFA results, cardiac and eye clearances, genetic panel information, age, structure, pedigree, and temperament before approving a pairing.
Pregnancy and birth
We track dam condition, birth timing, nursing, temperature, early weight gain, and comfort so small concerns are caught early.
Growth weeks
Puppies are weighed, observed during handling, introduced to age-appropriate novelty, and monitored for steady recovery after new experiences.
Go-home prep
Families receive care notes, feeding details, parasite prevention history, vaccine timing, microchip information, and what to schedule with their own vet.
Parent dog profiles include screening rows so buyers can see the kind of documentation tracked in Whelpify. In a real breeder account, certificate uploads can be attached to individual tests when the breeder wants families or staff to review source documents.
